Earthquake Update

The first tremor we had last Sunday morning, measured 2.5 on the Richter scale. The second in the evening, measured 3.4 on the Richter scale.

It started in Rafelguaraf, and was felt across La Safor, the Vall d'Albaida and La Costera. It was felt as far away as Africa in Algeria, and was registered in the sea, 24 km east off the coast of Tenerife.

On a brighter note, the last time anything like his was recorded was in 1880, 128 years ago, so we should be ok till 2136, I will look forward to it when I'm 182 years old
